Two satellites are in circular orbits around the earth. The orbit for satellite A is at a height of 502 km above the earth’s surface, while that for satellite B is at a height of 747 km. Find the orbital speed for (a) satellite A and (b) satellite B.
R = radius of earth = 6371 km
mass of earth M = 5.98*10^24 kg
hA = 502 km , hB = 747 km
orbital speed v = (GM/(R+h))^0.5
(a) vA = (6.67*10^-11*5.98*10^24/(6371000+502000))^0.5
vA = 7.618 km/s
(b) vB = (6.67*10^-11*5.98*10^24/(6371000+747000))^0.5
vB = 7.486 km/s

What is the ratio of the orbital velocities of two satellites, each in circular orbit around Earth, given that satellite A orbits 2.90 times as far from Earth’s center of gravity as satellite B? Give your answer in terms of B’s velocity to A’s velocity.
A satellite is in orbit around Earth at a height of 120 km above Earth’s surface. Find the orbital speed of the satellite. (Mass of the earth is 6*1024 kg and the radius of Earth is 6371 km)
A satellite of mass m (where m ≪ Me) is initially in a circular orbit around the Earth at a height of 410 km above the Earth’s equator. Its operators would like to move it into a geosynchronous orbit using a Hohmann transfer orbit. Assume a spherical Earth with radius 6371 km. (a) Sketch the satellite’s Hohmann transfer orbit. (b) Find the satellite’s initial (circular) orbital speed according to an inertial observer. (c) Find the maximum height of the satellite...

Two satellites, A and B, are in different circular orbits about the earth. The orbital speed of satellite A is sixty-seven times that of satellite B. Find the ratio (TA/Tg) of the periods of the satellites.
Many communication satellites are placed in a circular orbit around the Earth at a radius where the period (the time to go around the Earth once) is 24 hours. If the satellite is above some point on the equator, it stays above that point as the Earth rotates, so that as viewed from the rotating Earth the satellite appears to be motionless. That is why you see dish antennas pointing at a "fixed" point in space. (a) Calculate the radius...
